B.2.1 Definitions

The definitions in the following are relevant for this Annex only.

UE local IP address is defined as either the public IP address assigned to the UE by the Broadband Forum domain in the no-NAT case, or the public IP address assigned by the Broadband Forum domain to the NATed RG.

IP-CAN session as defined in clause 3.1 applies with the following clarifications for fixed broadband access. The term UE corresponds to the device that accesses the services provided by the network (i.e. either RG, or 3GPP UE or fixed end-device), the PDN identifies the IP network where the device gets IP connectivity and the UE identity information may be the IMSI, the user-name or the access line identifier (if available). In a Fixed Broadband Access an IP-CAN session corresponds to a Subscriber IP Session defined in Broadband Forum TR-146 [16].

NOTE: The PDN connection concept and APN are not applicable to a Subscriber IP session for a fixed device.
